Re: ntl Confirms 10Mb Broadband Speed Increase

This is getting to be a joke people saying i have been upgraded to 10meg surely NTL would roll it out more sensibly than lets give it to someone in Derby a person in London someone else in Cheddar Gorge but then again its quite amusing.

Ahhh i see, then i still agree with what you say

I know what you mean. I LMAO at most of the comments on here. Especially the whingers, complaining about something they haven't even got yet.

Why dont you drop down to 2mb and then get an upgrade once NTL release 10mb?

Re: ntl Confirms 10Mb Broadband Speed Increase

current thinking on the random upgrade thing here is that ntl are doing some form of testing, beta if you like before a mass roll out

He wouldn't be too happy if he downgraded one day, & 10Mb was introduced the following day!

Re: ntl Confirms 10Mb Broadband Speed Increase

I am inclined to think the upgrades that have happened are actually trials rather then the rollout. the service status does look interesting although Leics is mentioned a few times I havent had any outages as a result. But maybe it isn't in my part of Leics.

Re: ntl Confirms 10Mb Broadband Speed Increase

Well looks like I am moving to 3mb as the gf will have more upload which will suit her.

I would imagine it will also improve performance on games also?

Re: ntl Confirms 10Mb Broadband Speed Increase

I am not, it was in response to the conclusions already drawn up. I defenitly dont expect a mass amount of people to suddenly be upgraded 4th nov.
